[quote=Anonymous]My mom was great with helping with the baby but didn't help much with housework or cooking. She's local so it was still really useful to get her help. The main thing she did was come over in the morning so I could take a nap. She'd come over around when baby went down for his first nap and when he woke she would feed and change him, do tummy time or other activities and get him down for his next nap. In that time window I could take a shower or some other task then nap for up to 2 hrs. It helped me keep my sanity. When my second was born she did the same thing but was also watching our 2 yr old. Then for both my kids she watched them full time at her apartment while I went to work - for that part, she's an absolute saint. [/quote]
